There must be something seriously wrong with these statistics. We know for a fact that CA Statistics are exaggerated (for example they use sim card connections as a unique identifier as opposed to say Identity Card) - And CA can jump in here and correct me if my assertions are wrong. However, even in the wildest dreams, I can't believe that our internet penetration rates are that low!! 26%? I'd rather go with the GMSA report which gives an indicative figure of around 70%. Maybe this report alludes to Broadband Penetration? That would be a lot more believable.

Listers, the attached after access report by Research ICT Africa was launched today at the Stockholm Internet forum. "A comparative analysis of demand-side view of mobile Internet from 10 African countries².
As noted at the broadband meeting last Friday, available demand side data on Internet and mobile use in Kenya and many other countries is insufficient. The report attempts to bridge that gap.
Interesting statistics with Internet penetration in Kenya at 26% in line with ITU statistics. Differences are noted in other countries highest being in Rwanda with an 11% difference (See table 3).
